The Life and Art of John Keyse Sherwin
Born in East Dean, United Kingdom, John Keyse Sherwin was an English engraver and history-painter. After showing an aptitude for art through copying miniatures, he was sent to study in London, training first under John Astley and later for three years under Francesco Bartolozzi. Sherwin's technical skill was recognized early by the Royal Academy, where he was a student and earned a silver medal, followed by a gold medal in 1772 for his painting, Coriolanus taking Leave of his Family. He established himself in St James's Street as a painter, designer, and engraver, eventually succeeding William Woollett as engraver to the king and holding the appointment of engraver to the Prince of Wales.
Technical Mastery and Legacy
Sherwin was most esteemed for his work as an engraver, noted for being ambidextrous and able to work indifferently with either hand upon his plates. His drawing was characterized by correctness, excellent line, and varied, intelligent textures. His notable productions include:
Despite his professional success and a high income, Sherwin faced constant pecuniary difficulties due to his personal habits and died in extreme penury in London.
